Hi,

trying to start CIFS on Enterprise 3.2.0, I set

in the file-servers.properties:

cifs.enabled=true
#cifs.serverName=${localname}A
cifs.serverName=ALF
cifs.domain=
cifs.broadcast=255.255.255.255
# An empty value indicates bind to all available network adapters
cifs.bindto=
cifs.ipv6.enabled=false
cifs.hostannounce=true
# Enable the use of asynchronous sockets/NIO code
cifs.disableNIO=false
# Disable the use of JNI code. Only currently affects Windows
cifs.disableNativeCode=false
# Session timeout, in seconds. Defaults to 15 minutes, to match the default Windows client setting.
# If no I/O is received within that time the session is closed by the server
cifs.sessionTimeout=900

# Can be mapped to non-privileged ports, then use firewall rules to forward requests from the standard ports
cifs.tcpipSMB.port=445
cifs.netBIOSSMB.sessionPort=139
cifs.netBIOSSMB.namePort=137
cifs.netBIOSSMB.datagramPort=138

# Optional WINS server primary and secondary IP addresses. Ignored if autoDetectEnabled=true
cifs.WINS.autoDetectEnabled=true
cifs.WINS.primary=1.2.3.4
cifs.WINS.secondary=5.6.7.8

In log4j.properties, I set:

# CIFS server debugging
log4j.logger.org.alfresco.smb.protocol=debug
log4j.logger.org.alfresco.smb.protocol.auth=debug


I don't see any log about CIFS and nbtstat -n doesn't show an alfresco entry.

How can I debug this ?

Second question: not clear for me: do we have to alter the alfresco-global.properties file to enable CIFS ? Or setting the parameters in the file-servers.xml is sufficient ? (I tried both with the same result but a clarification would be appreciated).

Thanks,
Alain

cifs should be enabled by default in 3.2. i found a crazy solution that worked for me but don't know why. i copied the four dll's in the alfresco\bin directory to the alfresco directory. it worked for me.
